Arsenal confirm Asano signing

Arsenal have confirmed a deal in principle to sign Japan international Takuma Asano from Sanfrecce Hiroshima.

The 21-year-old striker revealed he’d been approached by the Gunners earlier this week and will complete his move once he’s had a medical.

Asano, who is due to play for his country at the Rio Olympics in August, was voted the J-League’s Rookie of the Year last season and is tipped as ‘one for the future.’

Speaking about the youngster, Arsene Wenger said: “Takuma is a talented young striker and very much one for the future. He has had an impressive start to his career in Japan and we look forward to him developing over the next couple of years.”

It seems likely that Asano will be sent out on loan abroad, as was the case with compatriot Ryo Miyaichi, to secure the necessary work permit and to get an understanding of European football.

Now, before you go wild in the comment section…just because we’ve signed a wildcard from a league you never watch, doesn’t mean this is the end of all our transfer activity. Try and keep a sense of perspective before bringing up Ibrahimovic’s move to United or Nolito’s switch to the Etihad.

And a 21-year old is not “one for the future”, he’s not 17; 21 years of age is already a first team player, don’t sell me that “one for the future” BS.

Yes but we are in desperate need for a finished article no.9, and we’re wasting time, money and personnel on 21 year old prospects for the future. Arsenal fans with a brain are tired of this shit. Where’s zelalem that we raved about 3 years ago. Bellerin has been the only decent signing U21 that Wenger has made in last 10 years.

In the last 10 years, Wenger has signed, Ramsey, Jenkinson, Chamberlain, Chambers, Campbell and even Gnabry…. Off the top of my head…. There’s a whole load of players I’ve forgotten about who have been sent on loan and haven’t been media darlings but who cares. Toral was B’ham’s player of the season last year.
In conclusion…. Jog on!

To be fair to you, the last title we bought a punt as “one for the future” was Sanogo.

At that time we were told he was for the future and would have no say in our first team and that we were still on the hunt for a striker.

Few months later, he’s starting against Bayern. And not because our first choice striker(s) weren’t fit and available either.

Did you miss the part that says he was awarded “Rookie of the year” last season? This means that last year was his break through year and it seems he had a good one at that.
He could very well be a late bloomer. There’s no guarantee that he will develop into a good European level footballer, but the investment here is minimal and the club won’t have trouble cutting him loose in case things he doesn’t improve as expected.

For reference, Wenger always says players don’t reach their prime until 25-26. Last I checked 26 was not equal to 21.

Since the end of the season it’s taken us give or take 7 weeks to sign one player, and we still have gaping holes in our squad that haven’t been addressed.

So yes, it does concern me as a fan who pays a fuck load of money to go watch Arsenal home and away each season, that we aren’t making the necessary changes to our squad now, when we should be.

I fail to understand peoples’ obsession with signings. I thought after Leicester’s performance last season, people would change their attitude. What matters the most is how the squad we have performs.

Actually, those are all outliers that go against the grain, and Wales and Iceland are probably not going to win the whole tournament.

Coupe de France: PSG

Bundesliga: Bayern
DFB-Pokal: Bayern

FA Cup: Man United

Which of those was won with cheapo players and a great team spirit?

Moreover, we haven’t won the league or CL with the players we have. What makes you think that we’ll suddenly develop this fantastic spirit, hard-work ethic and togetherness that will allow us to win without signing anyone new?

A really interesting signing. Considering the talk around using stats for signings these days (Wenger mentioned stats being an important part in the Elneny signing) I think in a few years he could well develop into a great player.

I thought I was the only one that thought bringing back RvP for the interim while Welbeck recovers is not such a bad idea.

I agree with – b)
But I don’t think he’s at all finished. Obviously lost pace,but he relied more on his movement and technique.
He has plenty of goals in him. Van gaal sold Welbeck, Hernandez and Di Maria. Van gaal was so wrong.

He was slated for overpaying when he bought Henry. So he will pay what he needs to when he’s 100% on a player, but I guess that’s difficult for him to be 100% on a player if he hasn’t coached them previously (Like he had with Henry).

Henry, at the time, was a failure in the serie A. Spending money is always going to be a gamble. Especially if you’re spending 40m+ on a striker who isn’t used to playing in the Premier League. However, sticking to a strike force that has yet to win you a title is also a massive gamble. So, who knows?

It isn’t lame when you’ve failed to win the league for 12 years and somehow think you’re a big team. Lame is when you have the best chance of winning the league, yet you buy only a goal keeper and no outfield player.
Lame is when your first choice striker goes on a 15 match scoreless run and never scored more than 16 in the league and people still call him underrated and STILL think we’re a big team.
Lame is calling walcott, Welbeck and Giroud world class.

Maybe that was the plan all along; an immediate band aid with Vardy to go along with a long term young striker solution.

I mean there were talks we were linked with a young German striker around the same time as Vardy that went under the radar. What this shows is that at least one half of that theory is true.

So he’s probably still looking for that immediate solution.

He isn’t the striker we’re signing to solve our problems up front because he might not even get a work permit. He’s just a gamble that might turn out useful for us in the future.

And don’t be such fucking racists. ” Oh the only reason we’re signing him is to sell shirts”. Bollocks. We took a chance with him because the boss thought he had the quality. Ryo didn’t look so bad until he was completely wrecked by injuries. Christ.
